Well then, lets start with this:
Beautiful. Truly beautiful.
I should put in the whole battle as well.
One Strip! One Strip!Beautiful indeed.
But geez, I wish someone did an English dub for that OVA. I know someone already did, but I'm guessing people want to pretend that never happened?
This deserves a redub, like One Piece or AKIRA. Or Sailor Moon.

Bump.
To talk about something Getter Robo-related, I'm really considering getting a Super Robot Chogokin (SRC) figure of either Shin Getter 1 or Classic Getter 1 in the near future.
Shin Getter 1 looks imposing and badass, but I'm concerned about its size and the prices it's going for on Amazon.
Classic Getter 1's starting to grow on me, but I think I'm gonna have to see some in-hand images before I make any final decisions.
Anybody having any thoughts regarding the upcoming SRC Classic Getter 1?
NECROMANCY, HO!
@SRC Getter-1: It's actually pretty good. Way more articulation than the Revoltech Getter-1, has green plastic for the glowy/reflective bits, and an interchangeable Getter Beam aperture for the gut.
Shin VS Neo, while a fairly basic OVA, has been pretty good to watch.
Devolution is nice but needs more chapters, also FRAGMENT OF EMPEROR. I suspect the Fragment itself can transform into an actual Getter, but will not do so until the current Getter in-story gets wrekt.
Where do the Dino-Getter figures come into play? Some unelaborated alt. timeline?
The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!So, question for you guys; Which Getter Robo Manga have been localized and translated into English?
The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.
Not sure. I don't know where to find any Getter Robo manga.
That being said, the link I put up earlier in the thread seems to be dead. I'm assuming it's Stoner Sunshine because... well, it's Stoner Sunshine.
Since I said I'd like to put up the entire fight anyway, and since it turns out a clip of just that one part isn't on Youtube anyway, here we go bitches!
x2 Now that you mentioned that, I’m not sure myself if there was a localization of the original manga series. I may have missed it while browsing the manga section in my local bookstore, but I could be confusing it with Devilman who, I believe, just recently gain english releases due to the popularity of the recent anime.
So basically the only way, at least from what I know of, to enjoy this series is read scanlations from sites or but a raw copy of the volumes and hope your Japanese is good enough (side note I should FOR REAL, learn Japanese especially since I browse on sites like Pixiv and watch NJPW).
The reason I asked is because I wanted to request my local Comic store to order some Getter Robo manga, but if none of it's been translated and localized yet then I don't really see much of a point. I would love to be able to read a physical Getter Robo manga, though.
The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.Yeah, as far as I know, the only way to read a physical copy of the series is in the original Japanese language. And unless you know Japanese or just want to collect them to be that asshole who say “Yeah I Spent over $50 For This Old Ass Manga” (the latter of which actually fits in line to my reasons why my next eBay purchase will be that), I say the only way to read the stories is through translations found on the internet.
Honestly this makes me wish that Netflix produce a new Getter Robo anime in a similar vein as Devilman Crybaby, because chances are that will influence manga publishers to release English translations of the original, G and Go.
Getter Robo Devolution just released its first volume, with the second set later in this month.
And what I would not give for a Netflix Getter Robo...
Wait, really?! Huh, will have to keep that in mind the next time I go there.

The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.Oh that's neat. 29700 yen sounds like a lot. Google says... 266 US dollars. Yeah. It's cool. Its also not going to be mine.
Exactly how I felt about Metal Build Mazinger Z.
